Palace Of Melancholy

Beyond the stony walls, I saw a palace

Where dwelt a queen, her name was Alice

In the garden of wisdom, immersed in her solace

With the reflection of the bright in her chalice

The queen was quiet and quite upset

In the comfort of the Palace, she felt unrest

From the rising of the sun, until sunset

The days were monotonous, dull without zest

She tried to climb the wall and tried to see

What lays beyond The Palace of Melancholy

She tries to jump the wall and set herself free

From the Palace doomed in deep melancholy

And as she jumps the wall, in the moonlit night

Treading over grasses, holding to her might

Away from the Palace in the midnight

The Queen moved with freedom and utmost delight

And as the day broke, she found the vast land

Abundant, lush green, beautifully grand

The animals and birds moving freely in grassland

Everything in order without order or command

The queen found her peace away from the Palace

In the midst of the jungle, she found true solace

She learnt in the grandeur one might be safe

But the soul seeks Freedom, and it will find its place
